Abstract
Antibiotic residues have become a worldwide public safety issue. It is vital to detect multiple antibiotics simultaneously using sensors. A new and efficient method is proposed for the combined detection of two antibiotics (enrofloxacin (Enro) and ciprofloxacin (Cip)) in milk using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensors. Based on the principle of immunosuppression, two antibiotic antigens (for Enro and Cip) were immobilized on an optical fiber surface with conjugates of bovine serum albumin using dopamine (DA) polymerization. Each single antigen was bound to its corresponding antibody to derive standard curves for Enro and Cip. The fiber-optic sensor's sensitivity was 2900 nm/RIU. Detection limits were calculated to be 1.20 ng/mL for Enro and 0.81 ng/mL for Cip. The actual system's recovery rate was obtained by testing Enro and Cip in milk samples; enrofloxacin's and ciprofloxacin's mean recoveries from the milk samples were 96.46-120.46% and 96.74-126.9%, respectively. In addition, several different regeneration solutions were tested to analyze the two target analytes' regeneration ability; NaOH and Gly-HCl solutions were found to have the best regeneration ability.

Abstract
Surface Plasmon Resonance based-sensors are promising tools for precision diagnostics as they can provide tests useful for early and, whenever possible, non-invasive disease detection and monitoring. The design of novel, robust and effective interfaces enabling the sensing of a variety of molecular interactions in a highly selective and sensitive manner is a necessary step to obtain both accurate and reliable detection by SPR. This review covers the recent research efforts in this area, specifically emphasizing well-designed interfaces and applications in real-life samples. In particular, after a short introduction which identifies some of the critical challenges, the emerging strategies for the integration of the linker, the metal substrate and the recognition element on the sensing interface will be explored and discussed in three sections, as well as the opportunities for building SPR biosensors, easy to use, and with excellent sensitivities. Finally, a summary of some of the more promising and latest diagnostic applications will be provided, presenting a new window into the near-future perspectives.

Ω-shaped fiber optic LSPR biosensor based on mismatched hybridization chain reaction and gold nanoparticles for detection of circulating cell-free DNA. Biosens Bioelectron 2023; 228:115175. [PMID: 36871422 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115175] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2022] [Revised: 01/10/2023] [Accepted: 02/20/2023] [Indexed: 02/23/2023]
Abstract
Circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is a promising biomarker of liquid biopsy, but it still faces some difficulties in achieving sensitive and convenient detection. Herein, an Ω-shaped fiber optic localized surface plasmon resonance (FO-LSPR) biosensor based on hybridization chain reaction (HCR) coupled with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) was developed, and applied in simple and sensitive detection of cfDNA. Specifically, one-base mismatch was designed in HCR hairpins (H1 and H2) to obtain high reaction efficiency, and AuNPs was introduced onto H1 through poly-adenine to construct HCR coupled with AuNPs strategy. Meanwhile, target cfDNA was designed into two domains: one could trigger HCR to generate dsDNA concatemer carrying numerous AuNPs, and the other could hybridize with capture DNA on the surface of Ω-shaped fiber optic (FO) probes. Thus, the presence of target cfDNA would initiate HCR, and bring the formed dsDNA concatemer and AuNPs to approach the probe surface, resulting in dramatically amplified LSPR signal. Besides, HCR required simple isothermal and enzyme-free condition, and Ω-shaped FO probe with high refractive index sensitivity just needed to be immersed into HCR solution directly for signal monitoring. Benefiting from the synergetic amplification of mismatched HCR and AuNPs, the proposed biosensor exhibited high sensitivity with a limit of detection of 14.0 pM, and therefore could provide a potential strategy for biomedical analysis and disease diagnosis.

Abstract
Nanopillars (NPs) are submicron-sized pillars composed of dielectrics, semiconductors, or metals. They have been employed to develop advanced optical components such as solar cells, light-emitting diodes, and biophotonic devices. To integrate localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) with NPs, plasmonic NPs consisting of dielectric nanoscale pillars with metal capping have been developed and used for plasmonic optical sensing and imaging applications. In this study, we studied plasmonic NPs in terms of their fabrication techniques and applications in biophotonics. We briefly described three methods for fabricating NPs, namely etching, nanoimprinting, and growing NPs on a substrate. Furthermore, we explored the role of metal capping in plasmonic enhancement. Then, we presented the biophotonic applications of high-sensitivity LSPR sensors, enhanced Raman spectroscopy, and high-resolution plasmonic optical imaging. After exploring plasmonic NPs, we determined that they had sufficient potential for advanced biophotonic instruments and biomedical applications.

Abstract
An optical fiber surface plasma resonance (SPR) sensor with MMF-TCF-MMF structure was designed to realize intelligent recognition of copper ions (Cu2+), and the selective adsorption sensitization was achieved by plating a layer of Cu2+-imprinted film on the surface of gold film excitation layer. Combining the principle of optical fiber interference and SPR, the proposed sensor realized the detection of the copper ions concentration through measuring the refractive index changes caused by ions adsorption on imprinted film. The Cu2+-imprinted optical fiber SPR sensor can realize the intelligent recognition and detection of copper ions in the complex environment and exhibits a detection sensitivity of -10.05 pm/ppm. The proposed sensor has tremendous development potential in practical application, and provides new ideas for the field of metal ions detection.

Abstract
Various optical components employed in biomedical applications have been fabricated using spider silk because of its superior properties, such as elasticity, tensile strength, biodegradability, and biocompatibility. In this study, a highly sensitive fiber optic sugar sensor is fabricated using metal-nanolayer-coated spider silk. The spider silk, which is directly collected from Nephila pilipes, a giant wood spider, is naturally a protein-based biopolymer with great flexibility, low attenuation, and easy functionalization. The surface of the spider silk-based fiber is coated with a metal nano-layer by using the glancing angle deposition technique. This fiber optic sugar sensor is based on the principle of the change in the refractive indices of sugar solutions. The attained experimental results show that the proposed sugar sensor is highly sensitive in the detection of fructose, sucrose, and glucose concentrations. This work may provide a new way to realize precise and sensitive online sugar measurements for point-of-care diagnostics.

Abstract
This study aimed at introducing thin films exhibiting the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) phenomenon with a reversible optical response to repeated uniaxial strain. The sensing platform was prepared by growing gold (Au) nanoparticles throughout a titanium dioxide dielectric matrix. The thin films were deposited on transparent polymeric substrates, using reactive magnetron sputtering, followed by a low temperature thermal treatment to grow the nanoparticles. The microstructural characterization of the thin films’ surface revealed Au nanoparticle with an average size of 15.9 nm, an aspect ratio of 1.29 and an average nearest neighbor nanoparticle at 16.3 nm distance. The plasmonic response of the flexible nanoplasmonic transducers was characterized with custom-made mechanical testing equipment using simultaneous optical transmittance measurements. The higher sensitivity that was obtained at a maximum strain of 6.7%, reached the values of 420 nm/ε and 110 pp/ε when measured at the wavelength or transmittance coordinates of the transmittance-LSPR band minimum, respectively. The higher transmittance gauge factor of 4.5 was obtained for a strain of 10.1%. Optical modelling, using discrete dipole approximation, seems to correlate the optical response of the strained thin film sensor to a reduction in the refractive index of the matrix surrounding the gold nanoparticles when uniaxial strain is applied.

Abstract
A high-quality plasmon-fiber cavity in a doubly resonant configuration can exhibit second-harmonic generation (SHG) with over 5 orders of magnitude enhancement compared to gold nanoparticles on a fused silica substrate. Through coupling to a fiber cavity with the proper diameter, a high-quality (Q ≈ 160) resonance can be achieved in combination with a single gold nanoparticle. In a classical picture, where the incident electric field travels coherently Q times around the fiber during the nonlinear process, the high Q of the coupled mode aids in highly efficient SHG. We accomplish two feats: First, we analyze the Q factor dependence of the SHG efficiency, proving the expected Q4 dependence and thus confirming coherent E-field amplification in the fiber cavity. Second, we carefully adjust the fiber size further and tune the plasmon response of a gold nanoparticle to a high-Q cavity mode. We make sure that the second harmonic wavelength is simultaneously in resonance with a higher order fiber cavity mode, fulfilling the doubly resonant condition. As a result, a giant SH response with conversion efficiency up to 1.6 × 10-5 is detected upon a pump intensity of 5 × 108 W/cm2 for 100 fs pump pulses around 840 nm incident wavelength. Additionally, the importance of the doubly resonant condition is proven by detuning the size of the fiber, which leads to a drastic drop in SHG efficiency. This disparity of the SHG efficiency can be observed even by eye, when monitoring the intensity changes of the visible SH light during detuning.

Abstract
At the present time, there are major concerns regarding global warming and the possible catastrophic influence of greenhouse gases on climate change has spurred the research community to investigate and develop new gas-sensing methods and devices for remote and continuous sensing. Furthermore, there are a myriad of workplaces, such as petrochemical and pharmacological industries, where reliable remote gas tests are needed so that operatives have a safe working environment. The authors have concentrated their efforts on optical fibre sensing of gases, as we became aware of their increasing range of applications. Optical fibre gas sensors are capable of remote sensing, working in various environments, and have the potential to outperform conventional metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) gas sensors. Researchers are studying a number of configurations and mechanisms to detect specific gases and ways to enhance their performances. Evidence is growing that optical fibre gas sensors are superior in a number of ways, and are likely to replace MOS gas sensors in some application areas. All sensors use a transducer to produce chemical selectivity by means of an overlay coating material that yields a binding reaction. A number of different structural designs have been, and are, under investigation. Examples include tilted Bragg gratings and long period gratings embedded in optical fibres, as well as surface plasmon resonance and intra-cavity absorption. The authors believe that a review of optical fibre gas sensing is now timely and appropriate, as it will assist current researchers and encourage research into new photonic methods and techniques.

Abstract
Due to their outstanding properties, carbon-based structures have received much attention from the scientific community. Their applications are diverse and include use in coatings on self-lubricating systems for anti-wear situations, thin films deposited on prosthetic elements, catalysis structures, or water remediation devices. From these applications, the ones that require the most careful testing and improvement are biomedical applications. The biocompatibility and antibacterial issues of medical devices remain a concern, as several prostheses still fail after several years of implantation and biofilm formation remains a real risk to the success of a device. Sputtered deposition prevents the introduction of hazardous chemical elements during the preparation of coatings, and this technique is environmentally friendly. In addition, the mechanical properties of C-based coatings are remarkable. In this paper, the latest advances in sputtering methods and biocompatibility and antibacterial action for diamond-based carbon (DLC)-based coatings are reviewed and the greater outlook is then discussed.

Abstract
Surface plasmonic sensors have been widely used in biology, chemistry, and environment monitoring. These sensors exhibit extraordinary sensitivity based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) or localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effects, and they have found commercial applications. In this review, we present recent progress in the field of surface plasmonic sensors, mainly in the configurations of planar metastructures and optical-fiber waveguides. In the metastructure platform, the optical sensors based on LSPR, hyperbolic dispersion, Fano resonance, and two-dimensional (2D) materials integration are introduced. The optical-fiber sensors integrated with LSPR/SPR structures and 2D materials are summarized. We also introduce the recent advances in quantum plasmonic sensing beyond the classical shot noise limit. The challenges and opportunities in this field are discussed.
